Save up to 50% on International calls with Etisalat's new Super Off-Peak Plan

The new plan will be an optional one for customers with the added benefits of no rental or activation fees.

Customers who subscribe to the new plan would get 50% savings on the off-peak rate for their international calls as part of a new Super Off-Peak Plan.

The Super Off-Peak hours will be from 1 am to 7 am everyday.

In addition to the super off-peak, customers will also benefit from the normal off peak hours applicable from 2 pm - 4 pm, 9 pm -1 am on week days, and from 7 am on Friday to 1 am on Saturday.

During off-peak hours, GSM customers will be saving 30% more than the current off peak rate, while Wasel customers will be saving 25% more than the current off-peak rate.

With text messaging being a popular mode of communication, the new Super Off-Peak plan will continue to offer competitive SMS rates to international numbers at the existing 60 fils/SMS.

Domestic SMS however will be charged at 30 fils/SMS.

Local calls to mobile and fixed lines during peak hours will cost a certain price.

However, charges for international calls during peak time will cost an additional 10% under this new plan.

Essa Al Haddad, Chief Marketing Officer, Etisalat said:

"The new Super Off-Peak plan is in line with our strategy of providing convenience, enhanced coverage and additional value to our customers, by enabling them to save more, while conveniently reaching out to their family and friends across the world on a more frequent basis. Furthermore, customers can now pick and choose from various "value" options provided by Etisalat like Global Friends & Family plan, Favorite Country Plan, and now the Super off peak plan, thereby providing customized options based on their diverse requirements."
